Abstract

Farr and co-workers (1989) list over 500 genera of plants in Fungi on Plants and Plant Products in the United States that are hosts to Rhizoctonia solani Kühn or any of 21 other species of Rhizoctonia that are phytopathogenic. Agricultural, horticultural, ornamental, and some tree species are affected. Twenty-five years ago, Leach and Garber (1970) reviewed resistance to Rhizoctonia infection and concluded, “In general, while it has been possible to identify differences among cultivars or selections in susceptibility to Rhizoctonia infection, it is extremely rare that a high degree of resistance has been found or produced by selection or breeding within a susceptible host species. ” Today, the use of resistant cultivars provides effective and adequate protection against the various diseases caused by Rhizoctonia spp. In some cases, the use of a cultivar with a moderate level of resistance can be coupled with reduced fungicide applications to provide a sufficient level of disease management. A survey of Crop Science revealed a list of 59 cultivar, parental line, and germplasm registrations in nine crop species during last 10 years that have some resistance to diseases caused by Rhizoctonia spp. These are included with cultivar releases from other sources in Table 1. All of this information attests to the importance of germplasm with resistance to Rhizoctonia spp.
